My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Dividing some shade plants

11 years ago

Hi all!
I have several out of control giant epimedium and Japanese ferns of several varieties.

I'd like to divide them and plan better in the future. Can it be done with these, or do I need to just dig out the whole plant, move it and hope for the best?

Thanks
